A beautiful way to present a biography of one man for whom art and science were entwined. The art is beautiful and the story is a succinct tale about obsession, Audubon's own decline pairing against american naturalisms descent into natural destruction of its pristine wilderness.

The author addresses that they have fantasized the tale but a wider scope would have only improved it, though with such gorgeous art moderation of length is to be expected. Well worth a read.
